ABOUT THE STONE GUARDIANS ILLUSTRATED FANTASY SERIES:

Late pledges are still active through the Kickstarter for Book Two: Keeper's Burden:

Hi I'm Kindrie, author of The Stone Guardians, an illustrated epic fantasy series. I am also a professional fine artist, specializing in cast bronze sculpture, oil painting, and drawing with work in collections all over the world.

All of my books are hand-illustrated by me with traditional materials.

Here are the current titles for the series:

Book One: The Messenger From Myris Dar (new second edition published fall 2025)
